[ANNOUNCEMENT] New: xwin-xdg-menu-20150706-1

[Jon TURNEY]

The following packages have been added to the Cygwin distribution:

* xwin-xdg-menu

xwin-xdg-menu is an XDG Desktop Menu Specification [1] menu for the X 
Window System running in the Cygwin environment.

xwin-xdg-menu reads the menu specification and desktop entries, and 
constructs a menu which is accessed from a notification area icon.

I really hope that users who didn't like the fbpanel solution (and it
seems there are many) will give this a fair shot.  In appreciation of
the work Jon put into addressing both users' input as well as the many
technical requirements of a modern, spec-compliant solution, could we
please have a gold star polished for Jon?

I second this.  The latest xinit release is a huge step forward in
terms of ease-of-setup and ease-of-use.  Thumbs up!
